ARW's ATMP Manufacturing Must-Reads (ST. PATRICK'S DAY EDITION!)Day-in and day-out, I write, read, listen to, and watch as much content as I can about CGT and RNA therapy manufacturing, in particular, and/or other ATMP industry-related topics that you should at least be aware of in the manufacturing facility. Once a month, I compile the articles and industry updates I think are most worthy of your time into an unconventional roundup article.

Together, this Advancing RNA panel briefly addresses the ongoing rise of synthetic pDNA, sharing the current benefits and limitations of working with this technology for plasmid production today.
While the speed of production and flexibility of mRNA are appealing, several industry challenges must still be addressed to realize the full potential and further expand its use.
In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss two experts' perspectives on the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.
Three experts in cold chain management walk through the advantages of end-to-end platforms for bulk drug substance management.
